Instituted by Christ, the sacraments are signs of grace that are guaranteed by Christ to give the graces signified.  They are entrusted to the Church and give us a share in the life of God through the work of the Holy Spirit. 

"There are seven: Baptism, Confirmation (or Chrismation), the Eucharist, Penance, the Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders and Matrimony. The seven sacraments touch all the stages and all the important moments of Christian life: they give birth and increase, healing and mission to the Christian's life of faith. There is thus a certain resemblance between the stages of natural life and the stages of the spiritual life."  -- the Catechism of the Catholic Church #1210

The celebration of the sacraments at Ascension manifest our mission to love God, love others and make disciples.
